Can someone tell me how to handle this situation?

Question

how to be able to help my g-daughter that had a child born with only a brain stem...I see her mother getting closer and closer to the baby and realise his nephew is going to be heartbroken as all the family will..they have given Jacobe Shane from 3 weeks to 3 months to live...they were going to try to put a shunt in his head to drain the fluid but said it wouldn't be worth the trauma the baby would have to endure...Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could help their feelings?It's as if you see a train coming and can't get them off the railroad tracks It hurts now but the closer we get the hurt is going to be almost unbearable. Christians if you can find it in your heart please pray for them....thank you so much

Update:

Thank you so much,Marie and may God Bless you and yours always

I am so sorry! Be there for them, as they will need your strength to get through this. Pray that the Lord will send the Holy Spirit to comfort them. Pray for God to give them peace that passes all understanding in the middle of this storm. My heart goes out to you and your family. I am praying for all of you. Will take this request to my prayer warrior ladies at church also. May God bless you and keep little Jacobe Shane in His loving arms.

Have your arms open when they fall into them and your shoulders ready for their tears.  And my prayers are with you all.
